Board responsibility for talent, workforce, and inclusive culture

December 2022

With the trend of “quiet quitting,” talent remains a crucial focus for companies entering 2023. Organizations face challenges in attracting and retaining key talent, while evolving stakeholder expectations and the need for new leadership competencies are complicating traditional approaches to leadership development. Companies and their boards are striving to honor their commitments to diversity, while building cultures that foster inclusion and support employee mental health. On November 30, 2022, members of the Compensation and Talent Governance Network were joined by Lybra Clemons, chief diversity officer of Twilio, and Debra Hunter Johnson, president of Reciprocity Consulting Group, to discuss how boards and compensation committees can address the challenges these issues raise for their oversight of talent strategy.
